Chances are, however, you won’t spend a whole lot of your time in the campground, especially when you have the gorgeous park to explore. The park boasts a full menu of amenities – boating, biking, fishing, and swimming.

Don’t forget your hiking boots or comfy shoes, either, because the park offers three somewhat lengthy trails. The easy, eight-mile North South Trail, for example, doesn’t get too busy and promises peace, quiet, and beautiful views.
